I don't follow this.  I think that in the US a cycleway would be called
either a "bike path" or "rail trail", depending on origin.

I would use "greenway" to describe a large linear park that might
contain a bike path and footpaths, as in

Using greenway to describe a cycleway seems odd to me, although I
suspect that the term greenway does not have an established meaning, and
people think it means whatever the local "Foo Greenway" is.
